When you're the Milwaukee Bucks, $4 million gets you a meh player. It's bench players being swapped; not a big deal.

It's not a big deal. The best part of the trade was the 2nd rounder. The Bucks aren't going to be hurting when Dudley picks up his option to be the 10th-12th player. I put "-ish" on that for a reason. On the other hand, it was a really good deal for the Clippers.

Does that mean by having Carmelo as an enemy within sabotaging the offense that the enemies outside can, in fact, hurt you?

The Cavs are like that team of guys I want to like but just can't. Bron is an incredible player to watch but I just can't stand the human. Love seems to be a pretty fun guy but I just can't stand the player and Kyrie is still a ***** for turning down Australia to be a role player for the US, plus I don't really like how he plays either.

Throw in Varejao and Mike Miller and you've got a couple more chumps on the team.

That said, god they're going to be tough to beat for the next couple of years if their coach is even half decent.

I hate hate hate hate hate the Cavs so now Lebron is back I don't have a word to describe how I feel about them.

I just can't stand LeBron, Love, and Varejao. LeBron bc he's a coward, Love bc he's an overrated tool, and Varejao just gets way too much love on here. But mostly it's because LeBron's front runner attitude just annoys the **** out of me.

Yeah Kyrie is cool. He's also a Jersey boy so he scores points for that.

It's kind of ridiculous how overrated Kevin Love has become. He sucks on defense, and his reboudning numbers are inflated bc he just crashes the boards instead of playing help defense so he can get a couple more cheap rebounds added to his stat line. The Cavs were much better off keeping their young players instead of trading the future away for this tool. Btw him and Kyrie and no rim protector, this team is going to be so mediocre on defense.

At least if they had Wiggins and LeBron, they'd be lights out with their perimeter defense. Wiggins could've been LeBron's Pippen, which would allow him to save energy on defense and focus more on offense and be even more of a beast. Now he's going to have to make up for the others defense even more now and tire out even more than he did with Miami last year. Terrible mistake.

You guys remember game 5 of the Finals? LeBron had that look in his eyes like he was going to drop 60. He was defending Parker for the 1st quarter and shutting him out. And the Heat were winning.

Then...he just tired out. He couldn't do it all for 4 quarters, and it became a blowout. You're gonna see the same problem in Cleveland bc they traded for Love. Big mistake.

I don't know why anybody would think Irving would play for Australia. He left there when he was two, he grew up in NJ, and his dad grew up in the Bronx.

I don't think anyone ever did, still he could have ;) We could be amazing in a few years, could have been on another level with him though. Irving, Exum, Simmons, Baynes and Maker with Mills, Bogut and Dellavedova off the bench and a bunch of stiffs to fill out the spots is not a bad little lineup if it had happened.

On a positive, just need one of Simmons or Maker to go #1 overall to move into outright 2nd for most #1 draft picks, passing Canada and Nigeria who we are currently tied with at 2.

Meh, you throw the word "great" around very loosely. He antagonizes his players, doesn't understand that in the 82 game NBA you need an actual rotation and his offense sucks. He's a white Mike Woodson with a few talented players.

He doesn't really have an elite offensive star...he's not the GM. Not his fault that his owner is a cheap asshole.

So coaches can only be be successful on offense with "elite offensive stars"? That still doesn't address any of my other points. He's not great, no where near great, and he's very clearly in the second tier of NBA coaches. He has a good defensive system, but good coaches develop relationships with their players, bond with them and nurture their growth. Thibs doesn't believe in that, apparently.
